Meltdown Of The Phoney Secularism Narrative

How many of you saw this coming? I saw it on the Bihar
results counting day itself. I was in fact so sure of the eventuality that I
had predicted a break-up in Lalu-Nitish coalition within two years. There is
nothing unexpected that happened yesterday because the script of 26th
July 2017 was written on 8th November 2015 itself. It was an unholy
and one of the most unlikely alliances that never had a long lifespan. I would
rather be surprised on the fact that it actually did manage to survive beyond a
year’s time. I not only saw this coming but also saw this coming much earlier
than it happened. Depending on which side of the fence you are in, you are free
to dissect the turn of events aligning your comfort zone and school of thought but
Nitish Kumar finally ditching Lalu is as natural as unmentionable slangs are
with ‘Delhites’.

Now the next question is – did Lalu saw this coming? I would
doubt Lalu’s political acumen if he hasn’t or failed to have noticed it. Being
known Lalu and his political manoeuvres during his prolonged political career,
he would have realized, all isn’t well within the alliance for quite some time. I
am even quite sure that Lalu Yadav wouldn’t have been too surprised looking at
yesterday either. He too knew that the trinity is sitting on the tip of a
volcano and it would erupt at any time of the day. Only surprising factor here that
may have caught Lalu off-guard could be the swiftness at which Nitish went
about accomplishing his job. The least Lalu would have expected is a warning
coming from Nitish’s camp, which ironically never came about.

Lalu-Nitish was a meaningless association from day one is
now a foregone conclusion. They came together because there was an existential
crisis for both of the leaders. Post 2014 general elections and the routing of
both these leaders and their respective parties made one thing clear – perform or
perish. Nitish Kumar even lost his job for a small period of time in-between. That
didn’t help the cause either. Mounting corruption charges and his conviction in
one of the graft cases almost had made Lalu redundant in both state and
national politics. He too didn’t have the numbers to make any significant
impact on the state polity. Had there been another loss in the upcoming state
legislation, it would have made both Nitish Kumar and Lalu irrelevant in our
political discourse. It was kind of a possible and highly probable death knell
and there was absolutely no way of survival except joining hands and weathering
the storm jointly. The alliance was carved out of sheer desperation and such
associations generally aren’t known to have very thick longevity. The ideology
and philosophy were such unlatching between Lalu and Nitish that a break was
inevitable. I mean, nothing else can scale the absurdity level than to deploy
someone as useless as Tejashwi Yadav as the deputy of a certain astute Nitish
Kumar. If insiders were to be believed, Nitish Kumar wasn’t very happy about
having both these Lalu Sons in prominent cabinet posts.

Nitish had to adjust because the numbers were not on his
side. In fact NK was left with no choice but to sleep with incompetence and
corrupt, which is vastly against the type of politics that he practices. It was
all about a chance and an option and all hell were bound to break loose.
Precisely the chance that came around after the Lalu family (almost every
member including the son-in-law) was charge-sheeted by the enforcing agencies. We
can safely say it was opportunist politics at display from NK but does that exonerates
our known liberals of their hilarious conduit since yesterday? Certainly not,
if you ask me. Hypocrisy is synonym with our liberal crowd and it is tough for
them to shed that altar so soon. No wonder they were at it again whole through
the evening yesterday.

First accusation that came along was that of betrayal and
opportunism. How funny it sounds today. The same gang was fine when NK ditched
an 18 years long association to join hands with Lalu. NK never was a natural ally
of Lalu but that didn’t compelled the clan to go on an intellectual overdrive
that they are doing now. For them it was a ‘match made in heaven’ during that
time though no political equation ever predicted the alliance. That time NK was
supposed to be the poster boy who had listened to his conscience of not taking
the sides of the communal forces though he was a partner for last 18 years. None
of the usual suspects ever worried how a clean politician like NK could
partner with a convicted criminal in corruption charges. None, absolutely none
from the lot asked why NK has suddenly got his scruples back after staying
there for 18 long years. The bogus secularism narrative was paramount which
even overshadowed the chequered past that Lalu always had. Since the dissociation
was involving BJP and Modi it has to be correct in whichever way one looks at
it, shouted the morons in unison. No liberal did blink for once in hailing the
decision of NK back then. None questioned if he is being opportunist or not.
But today when NK came out of the most unexpected alliance to go back where he
always belonged, the morons seem to have lot of burning sensation at all the places
possible. Suddenly NK no more remains a darling to them.

The poster boy has turned a villain overnight. NK realizing
his mistake or so to say after 18 long years was unquestionable gesture but the
same NK realizing the mistake in about one tenth of that time has to be
opportunism at its best. But then our liberals aren’t very bright people. They
blame NK today because their hard-work has failed again. Running up to the
Bihar election it was a ‘liberal charade’ all over the place. Few insignificant
morons even returned their never heard awards in protest. All was to set the
stage to throw around their stale narrative all over the place. Such a colossal waste it appears now. Bihar was
hard-earned I must say. Months long effort in hoodwinking everyone went to the
drain in minutes and the liberals are finding it hard to digest. The ‘Award
Wapsi’ gang now has that proverbial double whammy. They gave up their award for
Bihar but now they are left with neither their awards nor the Bihar which they
thought to be a silver lining in their otherwise dark present and even a darker
future. The bogus secularism that they propelled leading up to the Bihar voting
has fallen flat. Conclusively the fraud narrative of ‘secularism’ is buried by ‘corruption’ debate.
It doesn’t matter what a convicted criminal like Lalu would offer to the state.
A corrupt thug like him was OK with the liberal frauds. He was even OK for the
state for which he hasn’t done anything in the past nor intended to do anything in
future. But the falsification of secularism needs to be peddled at any cost.
The entire livelihood of many depends on this precise charlatanism. So there
goes the entire gang in white-washing Lalu and his cohorts with all kind of comical
and incongruous narratives.

Losing Bihar to a person these liberals hate most is just
part of the worry. It is the future that hunts these louts even more. Most of
them had multiple orgasm imagining a possible opposition to Narendra Modi and
BJP with a ‘Mahagathbandhan’ of their beloved politicians like Maya, Mamta,
Lalu, Nitish, Mulayam, Congress and many more flocked together. That
possibility too has gone to the drain it seems. The very ‘Mahagathbandhan’ the
morons were salivating at has ended up being a no-starter. Years of Rudali act
on secularism has yielded in a big naught. Free money has already dried out.
Even the future on which they had bestowed whatever little they had and with so
much hope is now appearing as a mirage to them. Desperate situation I must
admit. Freeloaders feel the pinch when the free crumbs thrown at them suddenly
disappear from the scene. All the plans of the grand alliance on a mission to
topple the Modi government in 2019 is now done and dusted. And the precarious
situation is because of this one man who they otherwise thought to be a hero.
So it is time to change the narrative. Time is to call NK an opportunist though
he never was when he broke away from NDA. Time is to call NK even an outright
communal.

That said how can one be so much hallucinated with their own
imagination? I know these liberal and media chaps aren’t very bright people but
even a layman would have noticed what NK was up to and how he was in the
process of changing his stance in last 8-9 months. He was one of the first CMs
who supported the demonetisation move without any complains. He too supported
Modi in the surgical strike debate. He even thrashed the whines of some
disgruntled losers on EVM hacking fiasco. He was seen hobnobbing with Modi on
many occasions. Defying everyone he openly supported the NDA candidate in the recently
concluded presidential election. Not only this, slowly but surely he started
avoiding Lalu in public. I mean, the hints that NK gave were too prominent to
be missed. But somehow our liberals never picked the notion. As early as 25th
July a known moron even outlined how the alliance in Bihar is safe. Safe; Really?
There were clear signs that the partnership is on the verge of breaking. The
last sign was when NK gave Lalu and his useless son the ultimatum of 98 hours
to resign. Like Lalu these selfsame liberal quacks thought of continuing living
in their dreamland and kept on having nice day-dreams. When the writings on the
wall were loud and clear our media charlatans surprisingly were jollying around
their own La La Land. Or perhaps they thought their bogus secularism
fabrication was too strong for NK to break free.

It is not a secret that Nitish Kumar is opportunistic. I had
written a post during 2014 general elections on how opportunism comes so
naturally to NK. But our liberals calling someone opportunist while it suits them is
little rich. Politics is all about opportunities. Which politician isn’t
opportunist? Isn’t their loving little Rahul Gandhi an opportunist? Had the
idea of opportunism is such a bad thing in politics I would expect the liberals
to whine equally when NK left NDA folds. But it never came around. Back then it
was a great sign of an emerging leader who had come of age to listen to his
inner voice. There was no opportunism then. Now that the narrative has complete
meltdown, giving clean chits to the scam tainted Lalu family and pouncing on NK
doesn’t make any viable argument. A convicted criminal is fine with the morons
since he satisfies their inner urge to propel their filthy secularism dialect
but NK needs to be hanged since he opposed the corrupt in his cabinet.

By
the way, Lalu should have learnt from past examples. The picture to the right
says it all. Whomsoever this woman has befriended, he or she got destroyed sooner than
later. In Hindi we call it 'Panauti'. Be it Rahul Gandhi or Akhilesh Yadav or for that matter the entire
Congress party and her previous organization called NDTV; examples were plenty had Lalu wished to look around for inputs. She in fact has
spread her charisma outside India as well. Before hobnobbing with her Lalu
Yadav should have asked Hilary Clinton for details. But one solace for Lalu in
all of this – he neither is the first one to be at the receiving end for his
not so needed friendship with a known destroyer neither he would be the last in
that unfortunate list.
